Chapter 3, Section 9 Descending the Mountain
"Yes, whether it is a protector or a protector, there will never be a mistake. Long Yu preached. Xiao Fei shook his fan and said: "One saint, two immortals, three friends, four spirits, five heroes, as well as six monsters and seven ghosts. ”
"Oh, 'Six Monsters' refers to the 'Six Monsters of the Tianshan Mountains', they are six old guys with strange tempers, and they don't show up much, especially in the past twenty years, they have never been out of the Tianshan Mountains at all. Shi Taiyan said.
Situ Shenjian and Zhou Lingfeng didn't know, but Xiao Fei knew: The six monsters didn't come out, it was because Xian Mei was there in town.
"As for the 'Seven Ghosts', although it is said, I don't know where it came from. ”
"Oh, doesn't Gongzi Long know?" Shi Taiyan exclaimed, "It seems that it is not that Shi Mou is shallow. ”
"What, you don't know?!" Lin Xingchi didn't seem to believe it.
"Probably no one knows the identity of these 'Seven Ghosts'," Zhou Lingfeng said with a straight face, "In the past few years, I have been wandering the rivers and lakes, and I have more or less heard rumors of several other masters, but only the 'Seven Ghosts' have never heard of it." ”
"Since no one knows, who included them among the masters?" Xiao Fei was puzzled.
"Mr. Xiao, do you know who is in the order of the masters of 'one, two, three, four, five, six, seven'?" asked Long Yuxuan with a smile.
"Xiao doesn't know, Brother Long said to listen. ”
"According to rumors, this is from the Valley of Ignorance. ”
Situ Shenjian said softly: "Mr. Tianji cultivates the lonely bamboo. ”
"Yes. If someone said in the early years that this remark was said by Shangguan Fengxue, the master of the Tianhan Sect, some people might not believe it, because although Shangguan Fengxue is good at divination, he only predicts the future. For the grasp of the current situation, no one can repair the lonely bamboo. If it is really arranged by cultivating lonely bamboo, there will be no mistake. Shi Taiyan analyzed.
"But these were probably the masters of a few years ago. As far as the current rivers and lakes are concerned, the newly rising 'Holy Martial Sect' and the mysterious 'Hanging Ice Sect' are also masters, and it is reported that the two sect masters are also rare masters. Long Yuxuan analyzed.
"That's right, judging from this list, it doesn't matter if no one from my Kongtong faction is selected, but Shaolin Wudang only has one immortal monk on the list, I'm afraid it's too much to say, the master of the world, it's not all. Zhou Lingfeng said. Xiao Fei and Situ Shenjian didn't say anything, and they didn't know what they were thinking.
"What person?!" Zhou Lingfeng shouted violently, raised his right hand, and with a "whoosh" sound, a "Linglong Stone" hit the shadow behind a mountain stone on the left side of the gate, only to hear the sound of "bell", the stone seemed to hit the metal blade, and immediately saw a black shadow go over the wall.
"Want to run?" Zhou Lingfeng sneered, his figure rose from the ground, and he galloped away like lightning.
"I'm going to help Brother Zhou!" Situ Shenjian looked at Xiao Fei, hesitated slightly, and chased out over the wall after seeing the latter nod slightly.
"I'll go too!" Lin Xingchi shouted, but Shi Taiyan held down his body that was about to jump up.
"If the two of them can't catch up, it's useless for you to go," Shi Taiyan said, "I don't know what Xiao Gongzi wants?"
"Me?" Xiao Fei couldn't figure out why Shi Taiyan asked himself this question for a while, and Long Yuxuan, who was about to chase after him, also stopped his movements at this time, as if he wanted to hear Xiao Fei's answer.
Shi Taiyan repeated the question he had just asked, "Xiao Gongzi thinks the two young heroes can catch the man in black just now?"
"This ......" Xiao Fei closed the fan and gently knocked on the door of his head a few times, "I wonder what Shi Daxia thinks of the martial arts of the two of them?" Xiao Fei asked rhetorically.
"Brother Zhou's light skills and leg skills are the leaders of the younger generation, and Situ Gongzi's swordsmanship can also be unique in the martial arts, and both of them are the top masters of the new generation of martial arts. Shi Taiyan said calmly.
"How is it compared to Shi Daxia?"
"If it is Zhou Lingfeng, Shi Mou sighs that he can't have the upper hand, because his body is too exquisite; if it is Situ Shenjian, Shi Mou may, he can only have a slight advantage in internal strength, and in terms of tricks, Shi Mou can't take any advantage. ”
Long Yuxuan's face tightened when he heard this, but Lin Xingchi was quite surprised, he knew what his uncle was capable of.
"In this way," Xiao Fei said in a straight voice, "in terms of the skills of the two of them, if they catch up, they will definitely be able to capture this person?"
"It's nature. ”
Xiao Fei smiled: "However, Xiao thinks that Situ Shenjian will return in vain......"
"Brother Xiao's divine calculation!" Situ Shen Jian stepped over the wall, "Shen Jian really returned in vain. ”
"Oh, I wonder how Mr. Xiao learned the result?" asked Long Yuxuan.
"Yes, Brother Xiao said to hear it. Situ Shenjian also smiled.
"Then Xiao is blunt, if there is anything wrong with the words, please correct them. Everyone present and Zhou Lingfeng Shaoxia are all masters in the world, and the mysterious person can lie in hiding within five zhang for a long time, so it can be seen that this person must not be a mediocre generation. As soon as he saw that his deeds were revealed, he turned around and fled, and there were two reasons for this: one was that he saw that there were many people here, or that his fists were difficult to defeat with four hands, but he only chose to flee for the sake of eavesdropping, and for fear that everyone would recognize his identity from his moves, and take care of his light skills and nocturnal skills. ”
"What does that have to do with Brother Situ?" Lin Xing was puzzled.
"Brother Lin, don't worry. According to Xiao's speculation, these two are both, that is to say, this person must be an excellent master of light skills, and Situ is not easy to be good at light skills, and when he chases a little later, it is very likely to be lost. Originally, if Situ chased after him again, there might be another clue, because there was still Zhou Lingfeng in front of him. However, the problem lies in Situ's personality again. ”
"Oh?" Situ Shenjian was slightly startled.
Xiao has been dating Situ for a while, and he also knows a little about his character. He is an extremely stable person, under normal circumstances, he will only do things that are nine out of ten, unless the situation is urgent, he will not chase after him. And tonight, we are talking about almost all the things that everyone knows about in the rivers and lakes. It was impossible for the man in black to hear any secrets, so Situ Shaoxia gave up tracking. ”
"Wonderful!" Situ Shenjian clapped his hands and said, "With Brother Xiao's talent, he is really wronged by my generation!"
"Xiao Gongzi is really capable," Shi Taiyan said, "What will happen to the boy's speculation about Brother Zhou?"
If Xiao didn't guess wrong, Zhou Lingfeng would probably have to return empty-handed. ”
"Oh?" everyone didn't believe it, Zhou Lingfeng was extremely skilled, would he still chase after someone?
"Brother Xiao, you have to give a reason, right?" Lin Xingchi asked.
"Hah...... Although Xiao has already drawn conclusions, we still need to wait and see the results. Wait for Brother Zhou Xian to come back, and then make a difference. ”
So the five of them stood in the empty practice ground, waiting for Zhou Lingfeng.
On the ground, a black shadow swept over the gate like a roc, and landed steadily on the spot, it was really Zhou Lingfeng, "Oh, you guys are still there?"
Brother Zhou really returned empty-handed. Long Yuxuan said.
Xiao Fei shook his fan and smiled: "Brother Zhou Xian should have caught up, but he didn't find it." ”
"That's right," Zhou Lingfeng didn't hide it, "Originally, I caught up, but that guy was very slippery, and as soon as he turned around, he didn't know where to hide." I didn't see it, but I could feel his presence, but I couldn't make out the direction for a while. Originally, if he waited for a while, that person would be impatient and come out on his own. But I thought, "I could afford to spend the night with him in the woods! Why don't I come back and get some wine? Besides, he didn't find out anything. ”
"Does Zhou Shaoxia really think that if he waits a little longer, he will catch that person?" Xiao Fei asked.
"Then you don't need to say it!" Zhou Lingfeng disagreed.
"That mysterious man has been able to lurk under the noses of the six of us for so long, which shows that this person is good at stealth and stealth. You Zhou Lingfeng is only slightly better than him in light skills, but he is inferior to the other party in terms of night walking, and he is also good at taking advantage of the terrain at night. Besides, you, Zhou Lingfeng, are not the kind of person who can endure his temperament. ”
Xiao Fei's words were a bit excessive, and to Shi Taiyan and the others, it sounded a bit like reprimanding Zhou Lingfeng, who had known him for a day. But Zhou Lingfeng was uncharacteristically silent, as if he accepted Xiao Fei's criticism.
"By the way, Xiao Gongzi, during the day, how did you discover the tricks of the people in the Demon Sect?" Shi Taiyan asked when he remembered this.
"This ...... Heh, what do you want me to say," Xiao Fei said with a smile, "Xiao has been weak since he was a child, often sick, and is particularly sensitive to some poisons. As the man approached with the box in his hand, I smelled a disgusting stench------ which was the breath of the snakes, and I guessed that there must be some kind of evil in the box. ”
"Oh. That's right. Long Yu preached, Lin Xingchi also nodded as if he didn't understand, but Shi Taiyan was silent, I don't know if I believe it or not.
"Okay, it's not too early, let's rest early, we have to hurry tomorrow morning. Shi Taiyan said.
"The younger generation has this intention," Situ Shenjian arched his hand, "Shi Daxia first, please." ”
Shi Taiyan didn't give in, so he took Lin Xingchi and walked to the guest room, Lin Xingchi turned around and said to the remaining four, "Big brothers, see you tomorrow!"
"Brother Xiao, Brother Long, Brother Zhou, let's go back too?" Situ Shen said.
